Brian: Did you really just ask if that was 5....?!?!?
Brian: It's fine. It's fine.
Lol, I totally was thinking the same thing :P
God damn it! It's 00:40 here and this made me get out of my bed and grab a deck of cards too see for myself. I love you and hate you at the same time 😂
It's so nice for this young lady to volunteer time enriching the life of the elderly and senile.
I just want to know how long it'll be until she's on Penn & Teller's Fool Us.
This is a good trick to explain the commutative property of addition.
By saying "does it matter if I do my secert number first or yours?", you demonstrate that moving (eg 2 + 4) is the same as 4 + 2.
You then redo the trick doing the victims number first and show that their special card is always at the end, every time. Then the performers magic number slides it down the number of steps to place it that far along.
imagine josie spiking her hair in rebellion.
She needs to do that
It would definitely look better on her than it did on him.
For anyone who was super confused like me, here's one aspect that is key:
While it appears that the move Brian did the first time of moving one, then two, then one would be different than moving each one at a time, the resulting order is the same as if he moved them one at a time.
12345 -> 23451 -> 45123 -> 51234 vs
12345 -> 23451 -> 34512 -> 45123 -> 51234
It's counter intuitive because it feels like moving one by one would flip the order whereas moving multiple together doesn't it, but if you look at the above diagram or try it yourself you can easily see why that's not actually the case.
Thank you!!! I was confused about that but this makes it obvious.
It's the same principal as the "Deal or Switch" false shuffle
Josie is going to go far in life.
She's growing up fast too
@@NoonMountain that 6 month growth spurt is boggling
I hope she does some magic stuff like her Dad.
Only a Brushwood could curse a card by drawing a smiley on it
Modular arithmetic, the most magical form of mathematics. :)
*modulus
@@user-vn7ce5ig1z That's like correcting someone who mentions division by saying "*quotient".
The modulus is the object that's found after the modulo operation in modular arithmetic.
@@user-vn7ce5ig1z It would have benefited you if you were to, I don't know, read their name before blindly commenting?
@@user-vn7ce5ig1z it is modular arithmetic....
It is fine to know that it is modular arithmetic but it is better to know how it works mathematically
Clicked because scam nation stayed for Josie's personally
Love your content brian. Feels amazing to rediscover this after 9 years!
The episode won't go wrong because of you Josie
So you are just cutting the cards at the position of the cursed card. Offset by the secret number of the performer?
That is some clever way to to reuse a cutting the cards trick.
By moving the amount of cards, the "victims" secret number, you are cutting a deck at the position of the cursed card. And know it is on the top/bottom. Since you moved cards also, you know the offset to the top/bottom.
Nice trick. I cannot remember all the good stuff you show us.
I'm just surprised that after all these years of being Brian's daughter, she can still be impressed by her dad doing a card trick.
Thanks Brian for showing us this wonderful tricks in this bad times
The best online entertainment ❤️❤️😘
Excelente truco y la explicación! Me divertí mucho con el video también!!! Saludos desde Argentina
Since this works also with 6 cards, you might do a little variant: Instead of letting the performer choose his cursed number, he can roll a d6.
That's a great idea, adds another layter of misdirection, you could also get an audience member to suggest a number and another to suggest a direction and move that many cards (obviously you need to hear these and work out where the cursed card will be)- which may further misdirect. Now use a pendulum to find the cursed card and you have a nice psychic effect.
Take your number, subtract my number, subtract your number, add 5. Thу answer is 5 minus my number.
That's totally unexpected!
Took me like 15 minutes for this to set in my brain lol. Now I get it! Great trick!
2:55 Josie have you ever seen any modern rogue?
So as long as you stick to the Performer's Grid of 0/5, 1, 2, 3, 4; the card will land on the Performer's designated secret number. That's it right?
Yep!
@@scamschool took me about 90 minutes to completely understand it. I was on the cusp for so long
@@ZackBlackwood97 Think of a number between 1 and 5.
Now minus your number from your number.
Is your new number zero?
Or if you want it in a math formula
A + B - A = B
@@grlmgor This is what I was looking for, I was trying to figure out what the math was behind this so hard and I knew it had to be something really simple.
Its much simpler when you think only about the players action which puts their card at the end. all the magician is doing is shuffling further so that they don't spot this.
Great card fidus 👍
The best way to explain this trick is to think of the cards in a circle, like a clock, 1-5 clockwise. When you move a number of cars to the end, it's the same thing as rotating that counter-clockwise.
Now, when you do the trick: ignore your own number, it's there for your reference. They pick a secret number, and rotate the cards around counter-clockwise that many numbers. They literally just rotate their card to the 5 spot for you. Now, when you do your secret number, you rotate it again. So, in your mind, just account for that.
You can also think of it that their move would move the card to the 5 spot, so just look where your secret number puts the 5 card, and it'll be there.
It's basically just a more subtle version of:
Select a number, add 5, now subtract your number, and I know the result! It's 5...
Can see Josie being an expert in the future!
the moment you realise how it actually works is amazing :D
Maths tricks are wild because maths nerds might not immediately sort out what the trick is, but we definitely immediately sort out that they are, in fact, maths tricks. May we all be so lucky to get a blurse.
It works because basically the magician's secret number + the same number from left to right = 5.
so whatever secret number they moved.. their card is in that place
Actually kind of the other way around, because the magician could always just go with 0. The key is that "Put the card at the secret number and then move as many cards over" is essentially "Put your card at the first position" and only then comes in the magician with his distraction by also moving the cards.
@@DerMichael THANK YOU!!! Your explanation of all the others on here is what made sense to me... By them choosing their "secret number", they are essentially agreeing to put their card on the end. When I choose to make mine zero and run the trick in my mind, it then makes sense. If I choose something other than zero, I move that many over, but at the end of the trick I'm taking that many away. So as long as they correctly put their card in the last position (which their secret number forces), then I can never be wrong. Counting backwards would be the exact same as me "undoing" my move, putting their card back to the 0/5 position.
Cool, the magic tricks are back. 2 in 2 weeks, oh yes!
Greeting from France
Josie is training to take over Scam Nation isnt she?
No complaints.
I love these math type problems, but also hate them because they work but don't make sense.
It's about time Josie started "scamming" others with what she's learned.
She may have asked if it was 5 cards but she was right
Modular arithmetic?
Modular arithmetic FTW
Great trick. I may need to do it at the bar on Saturday
10 different emojis!
*shows 10 times the same emoji*
I'm annoyed that I just cannot figure out the reason why this works no matter what numbers are chosen. But I guess that also makes it a good trick!
Josie is learning how to make Clickbait. Brian is preparing her to take over the channel.
nobody is asking what brushwood drew!
Im still confused, "You don't need to understand it to do it"
Me: "I GOTTA UNDERSTAND IT!" Math/algorithm card tricks are harder imo. *Still don't get the trick lol*
Think of it this way. You're the magician and your secret number is always zero. When they choose their secret number, they then have to move that many cards to the end, this FORCES their secret card to the 0/5 position, every time. Since you chose zero, you win because you select the 0/5 position... But if you chose 1, well then you would have moved one card over before they move theirs, then at the end of the trick, you're going to count one card back (basically undoing your first move of one). Think of it as instead of choosing their card based on your secret number's position that instead, you move your secret number of cards BACK the other way. You just undid what you first did, thus changing it back to their card being at the end, (the 0/5 position). Again, because their secret number choosing always forces them to move their secret card to the end, (the 0/5 position).
@@JustinOhio
Very good explanation! Now I get it. 👍🏻
@@Finnec123 Glad it helped someone!
Josie your going to go so far Penn&Teller fool us eventually (I hope)
Spoiler: it's just modulus arithmetic (like most mathemagic is) : 5 % J % (5-B) % (5-J) = B
I really wish she wrote grilled cheese all over the card
i have tried over and over can not get it right...???
I know this is a great trick because I still don't know how this is done.....
maths!
Brian, no need for the magician to use their secret number. Just gather up the cards maintaining the order. Undertake three 'above, below' mixes which will result in no change to the order but will look like a genuine mix up to the spectator. As part and parcel of the mix just transfer a couple of cards (you can vary it if repeating the effect) from top to bottom to finish off.Then deal the cards out again into a row. Spectator makes their transfers and you simply count 0, 1, 2 from your perspective and you get their card. Spectator thought card will be seen by them to be in a different position at the reveal than it originally was thus supporting the premise that you really mixed up the cards.
Many thanks for this one. It reminds me of an old effect called 'Moving Revelation'.
not sure if it's a good idea for you do curse with the face of another, you 2 look a lot alike each other...
Those were the same emojis
I just dont believe this kind of trick exists
Josie aged so much in the last 3 months
3-3-2 is not going to work.
I still don't fully understand how this works D:
Think of it a different way, remove the magician from the trick. If you put something in position 3, then move 3 cards to the other side you would always be moving the selected card to the end. (3 - 3 = 0)
What makes it seem like magic is the magician has added to the number so when the cards are moved they are already offset by the number.
As it's only addition so we can also reverse when the magician moves the cards which makes it a little more obvious as you would have the selected card moved from position 0 to the position the magician selected since they just added extra cards to the start. (3 - 3 + 2 = 2 or 3 + 2 - 3 = 2)
So think of it like this, I'll number the cards:
1 2 3 4 5 (from viewer's side)
Let's say the viewer's number is 2. The order actually doesn't matter so let's say the viewer goes first for the sake of simplicity:
3 4 5 1 2
(!) Notice how not only he moved 2 cards but also his card is now the last.
From performer's perspective it looks like this:
2 1 5 4 3 [*]
The viewer's card is in the 0th position.
Now imagine the performer moves 1 card because his secret number is 1 (now from last to first bc of perspective change):
3 2 1 5 4
Because he moved 1 card the viewer's card (2) have got into the 1st position (remember, we're starting from 0)
If he had the secret number 3 and moved 3 cards from point [*], for example, it would look like this:
5 4 3 2 1
The viewer's card is in the 3rd position.
So the position of the viewer's card is solely determined by the amount of cards the performer moves. If his number is 0 he would move no cards and the 0th card would be the viewer's card.
Now if we change the order nothing will change of course but the trick will be harder to comprehend.
I love you
@@termehboi1515 😂😂
its ok no need to be embarrassed she needed to recount 5 cards. not everyone has that confidence under pressure. im sure she is good at something youre not! actually! i challenge you to create a magic trick involving something shes good at!
Isn't there an earlier Josie video in which *Brian* screws up counting five cards?
@@AdmiralJota yes Josie corrected him
1:55 I love the look on her face right here.
You can tell, she's actually looking older.
We usually like being able to see your eyes, Josie.

How does it work
The cards start {1 2 3 4 5}. No matter what your secret number is, it always ends up at the end.
{S 2 3 4 5} -> {2 3 4 5 S}
{1 S 3 4 5 } -> {3 4 5 1 S}
{1 2 S 4 5}-> {4 5 1 2 S}
{1 2 3 S 5} -> {5 1 2 3 S}
{1 2 3 4 S} -> {1 2 3 4 S}
That's not true. In the second example of the video it even ends up in the middle.
@@DArtagnonW Nope. If you watched Josie do it the Selected card was not at either end.
@@DArtagnonW It'll put the cursed card in My secret Numbers position not at the end. If i chose 2 and started the move. It doesnt matter what your number is it'll end up in the 2 position {1 S 3 4 5} => {0 1 S 3 4}
@@voorp While you are technically correct, DA was on to something very important. The cards are being "rotated" as if they are 5 spokes/teeth on a wheel.
And, the direction of rotation is the same for both participants.
First, they rotate by the Performer's number and then the Mark's number. So a total rotation of P + M
Well, that's the same as M + P
So, if we rotate by the Mark's number first, then the Mark's card will always be at position 0 (at the end), then rotate by the Performer's number, and the card will be at (you guessed it) the Performer's number.
I don't get it...terrible explanation
